Didn’t
Think So by the Great Society

1) Never thought that it could be the one face that I’d loveNever thought that I could place that one above the otherBut his way of turning on seemed right to meAnd I think he’ll make me freeThings he chooses to put in his mindSeemed to have placed his sadness behind

2) And if I have to follow, it will change the way he isAnd with me his sovereignty can’t be lost by what I giveAnd if he mentions leaving, I can do no moreTo make him stay behind an open doorThe love that he loses here he will find again another wayAnd I won’t be the one to tell him where he must play

3) When I first met him he was glaring at meAnd I think it was black that he was wearing at the timeBut he spoke of changes and said come with meAnd I was glad to leaveI have heard so many things I never thought I’d feel beforeAnd I won’t be through with him until he [says] like a raven

Amphetamine
Gazelle by Mad River

lyrics corrected by Mad River members Rick Bockner and Lawrence Hammond via email correspondence, October 2012

Why’d you put spiders in my mind
To build methadrine webs on my time
Ain’t no spider dollars to pay them off
Girl I guess I know you’re playin’ rough
Want to call the doctor but I don’t have a dime

I just can’t breathe babe can’t you tell
Your mind and mine don’t meet their parallel
*Sit and pick the locusts from your eye
With the ghosts, the Germans makes me cry
Got me jumping like an amphetamine gazelle
I say, I say

Hung me from Golden Gates of Hell
No Merlin’s there to break the spell
Ever since you white-powdered face
Anteater’s sitting at my table place
Librium sloth cookin’ up a mental gel
But I’m a gazelle
But I’m a gazelle
Amphetamine gazelle

*note : in the EP version the two lines here are :
There just ain’t no Timothy Euclid
Geometry books just say “oh you kid”

High All the Time by Mad River

lyrics corrected via email correspondence (October 2012 - thank you !) by Mad River member Lawrence Hammond, who wrote it and sang it

High all the time and no one looks to me
Like they’ve come here to see my eyes that are burned and blind

Clear it away, this grease that’s on my eyes
The light slips past too easily and burns into my eyes

The crowd screamed “Jump !”
Great big movies inside my head
Waiting for their moment to come
Don’t they know it’s already dead

What could I hide, I’m the world you walk around
Just a camera taking photographs on a film that I can’t find
High all the time
